*Fall Yarn*
We'll have lots of great new fall yarn rolling in the door during the months
of August and September. This first week we have a wonderful new tweed from
Berroco - Blackstone
Tweed<http://www.berroco.com/shade_cards/blackstone_tweed_sh.html>,
it's softer to touch than most tweeds and I'm really looking forward to
getting your reaction to it. Also new is *Pure Merino
Chine<http://www.berroco.com/shade_cards/pure_merino_sh.html>
*, (the new colors are at the bottom of the page) one of our favorites made
even better! The Berroco pattern books are already here, *Norah Gaughan's
volume 5 <http://www.berroco.com/ng5/ng5_photoview_pv.html>* has some very
interesting and intriguing designs as usual, and my favorite this time is
the collection of *Mens patterns from Norah
Gaughan<http://www.berroco.com/ng_men/ng_men_photoview_pv.html>
*. I want to make ALL of them :-)
We also have a new yarn from Classic Elite Yarns, *Fresco*, which is a sport
weight wool/baby alpaca/angora blend that is so heavenly, I bought 30
colors! So there should be something to please everyone. This yarn will be
lovely knit in the Bohus style as well (we're planning a class, stay
tuned...). We also have new to us *Moorland*, a heathery single-ply worsted
with wonderful earthy colors. Classic Elite pattern books are also here.
There's a whole book of patterns by one of my favorites: *Jared Flood of
Brooklyn Tweed <http://brooklyntweed.blogspot.com>* fame.
Please check our web site <http://www.KnittingEtcIthaca.com> for photos and
updates throughout August and September!
